A confidential space for young people to talk — with thoughtful, discreet communication with their families.
Adolescence and early adulthood are times of enormous change — new independence, academic and social pressure, identity, relationships, and for many, life away from home for the first time.
Nonie works with teenagers and young adults on anxiety, low mood, stress, self-esteem, friendships and family conflict, and the transition to boarding school, college or work. She meets them where they are, in a way that feels respectful rather than clinical.
She has particular experience supporting students at New England boarding schools — through homesickness, anxiety and the pressures of living away — in coordination with families wherever in the world they are.
Young people need a place to speak freely. Nonie explains clearly what stays private.
